I was just going to say the same thing. Coin collecting is nothing new and may have been even more popular with the general public in the past....
All joking aside....... My take on it? I don't see an issue overall. I primarily stick to reading threads that interest me or teach me...
If you're really wondering, there's a couple reasons. First, look at the dates some of the auctions ended. Some of them go back to 2001 or...
Because most of them are decent enough to pass as real unless you're well studied in the series and can notice the very subtle defects. People...
I'm naturally suspicious too but it doesn't look bad to me. There's nothing obvious anyway. The numbers appear to be in the correct format. It...
No doubt. I would buy an ANA 6th edition and form your own opinion. Or, take the key dates at least and send them in. Even if the 16-D is...
lmao! That was funny. Partly because it was your first post. Partly because of how you wrote it. Partly over how you assume we know where...
The ones with no mintmarks are the ones most likely to be counterfeited. So I hope you know how to recognize good fakes. I would stick to...
:kewl::eek::yawn: Stunning. I would hate to guess what the coin equivalent of that list is. That is unbelievable. That $2 battleship and...
I don't agree. It's not the same. The collector has every right to sell something as the dealer does. Only the collector has no overhead and...
And that's a big part of making the profit. Taking advantage of ignorant people. Which essentially removes wealth from families. The same as...

That's what I was going to say. I like coins and I never thought I'd like paper. But they started getting to me the more I looked at them....
lol cool. You knew that would come in handy some day. I forgot you put that together.
Au gave a good reply. Really have to see a pic of it. In all likelihood, we can probably assume it's a normal, BN, well circulated one, as if...
One more thing you may want to know about grading..... Overall, it is the right thing to do. But be prepared. There can be positive and...
Sounds like you're well on your way to getting everything straightened out. PCGS is located in Newport Beach, CA. I actually prefer NGC...
This is a fake You're right. The "W" is wrong. So is the T and the R in Trust. Here's a larger image of an 1881-P in a MS-63 PCGS slab....
Well, that's good news for you. NGC headquarters is in Sarasota, Florida. Don't know how close you are to there but you certainly have enough...
I've ran across a lot of coins lately on ebay that are listed at above NGC's price guide. Usually NGC is high. But I've never seen as many as I...
